Iranian Foreign Minister has vowed that Tehran will continue to support for Syria and the resistance front to counter Israeli atrocities in the region.
Araghchi made the remarks in a meeting with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in Damascus on Saturday in Syria where he is on the second leg of his regional tour after paying an “important” visit to Lebanon a day earlier.
“This [Iran’s] principled stance is in line with protecting regional peace and stability and supporting national security of the countries in the region,” he said.
The Syrian president, for his part, hailed Iran’s strong stance in support of the oppressed Palestinian people and the right to self-defense as well as resistance against the Zionist enemy’s occupation and aggression.
Assad said the international community must make all-out efforts to end Israel’s criminal adventurism adding that resistance against all forms of occupation, aggression and mass killing is a legitimate right.
He commended Iran’s “strong” response to Israel’s repeated attacks on regional nations and violation of sovereignty of the countries in the region.
He emphasized that Iran’s military response on Tuesday night gave a lesson to the Zionist entity that the axis of resistance is capable of deterring the enemy and thwarting its plans, and that it will remain strong and steadfast thanks to the will and solidarity of its peoples.
The Syrian president added that Israel has no option but to stop the crimes of killing and shedding the blood of innocent people and to restore their legitimate rights.
Assad and Araghchi discussed ways to stop Israel’s aggression on Lebanon and the need to provide support to the country in the face of large displacement caused by the Israeli savage attacks.
